San Diego's FBI field office participated recently in a nationwide sex-trafficking crackdown that located hundreds of victims of sex trafficking and netted hundreds of arrests. In San Diego, Operation Cross Country XIII resulted in four arrests and interventions on behalf of more than a dozen victims, including two minors, the federal agency announced Tuesday. The two-week multi-agency enforcement effort focused on identifying and locating victims, arresting individuals and disrupting underworld organizations involved in human trafficking and sex crimes that exploit children, according to FBI public affairs.
